stoical

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

tears are shed from eyes around me, and i do not move. birds sing their songs around me, and i do not move. i view death falling around me, and i do not move. words are distributed around me, and i do not move. weather constantly changes around me, and i do not move. violence presents itself around me, and i do not move. happiness is shared around me, and i do not move. individual moods vary around me, and i do not move. everyone smiles and frowns around me, and i do not move. time continues to pass around me, and i do not move. the world is falling in around me, and still, i do not move.
